Incidentally, automakers have long since developed techniques to combat rust that are roughly equivalent to stainless alloys, like galvanizing the steel (that is, applying a zinc coating) and improved paint. Indeed, stainless steel itself is not entirely rustproof, as anyone with a stainless knife or cutlery has likely discovered. Leave it under a damp surface like a cloth (or leaf, or bird poop) for too long, and it will start to corrode.July 2022:
Nothing 00 steel wool won’t fix if you happen to park under rare bird that poop sulfuric acid.
No steel wool! Or use stainless-steel wool, if you must. Normal steel wool will embed iron into the surface of the stainless, causing the appearance of rust.
I use 3M scrub pads on the DeLorean.

Just park your truck where it will be uniformly voted with birdshot. Like under a rookery or something. Keep it there for a week or so then hose it off and park it there again.
Eventually your truck will attain a nice, unique splatter pattern patina which will be the envy of all.January 2024: Tesla catches on.
Although I still say, the dumbest part is, it’s not even a f*cking truck! 🛻when my cyber truck gets turned into swiss cheese by big pieces of bird shit it's going to look bad ass . itll be like mad max james bond pic.twitter.com/SqEsNruXNV
